Clio 197 / Black / Sydney / Australia

Hi Guys,

I'm a new member.
Looking to pick up some hints & tips.

One thing I'm really after is a new steering wheel for my 197.
Mine is all battered & warn.

Also, any other Sydney-siders here?

Welcome to the forum, nice to have another international member

There are a few members now from Australia - although I'm not sure how close to Sydney they are

With regards a new wheel - there is a trader on here [MENTION=1597]Steve@EdgeAutomotive[/MENTION] that does re-trims of wheels, although they are UK based. You could try them but postage could be dear!

G'day & welcome. I'm up the road at Newcastle.

Had some carbon wrap done this weekend.
Along with some re-blacking of trim & of course - the obligatory grille flag added.

Hey Steve,

Nice to hear from you!
I'd love to know where you get parts in Aus!
If you have any little tips you could extend to me, I'd be heaps grateful.

Thanks,

No worries just ask.
I get most bits from the UK as even with postage its still cheaper than buying most stuff from OZ (& i'm in the trade lol).

Oh, cool!
Do you have some sites you predominantly use?

One thing Im really looking at doing is a remap, but I have no idea where to do it in Aus.
Any pointers?

Thanks again!

Ktec are probably the most well known of the RS specialists.
No one in OZ can map your car so you have to bite the bullet & get a remote tune from the UK.
A remap is the last thing you want to do if your planning other engine mods.
